According to this way of thinking, philosophy and theology must forever remain distinct. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e In \u003ci\u003eFrom Theology to Theological Thinking, \u003c\/i\u003e Jean-Yves Lacoste takes a different approach. Stepping back from contemporary philosophical concerns, Lacoste--a leading figure in the philosophy of religion--looks at the relationship between philosophy and theology from the standpoint of the history of ideas. He notes in particular that theology and philosophy were not considered separate realms until the high Middle Ages, this distinction being a hallmark of the modern era that is coming to an end. Lacoste argues that the intellectual task before us now is to work in the frontier region between or beyond these domains, work he identifies as \"the task of thinking.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e With this argument, Lacoste resets our understanding of Western Christian thought, contending that a new way of thinking that is at once philosophical and theological will be the lasting discourse of Christianity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean-Yves Lacoste\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0813951275\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780813951270\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Virginia Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/27\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.32d","brand":"Jean-Yves Lacoste","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44365434716415,"sku":"9780813951270","price":24.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_815dfdec-6f71-4a31-a84f-017e678731cd.jpg?v=1697058500","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-theology-to-theological-thinking-jean-yves-lacoste-9780813951270","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
